“War is the health of the state.”
Randolph Bourne
tags: war

“Do not take the world too seriously, nor let too many social conventions oppress you.”
Randolph Bourne, The Radical Will: Selected Writings 1911-1918

“The American intellectuals, in their preoccupation with reality, seem to have forgotten that the real enemy is War rather than imperial Germany. There is work to be done to prevent this war of ours from passing into popular mythology as a holy crusade. What shall we do with leaders who tell us that we go to war in moral spotlessness or who make “democracy” synonymous with a republican form of government?”
Randolph Bourne
